Whether you’re amid job applications, trying to expand your network, or playing the long game as you pursue your dream role, cultivating a resilient mindset is critical.

“I think that the biggest contributor to people's inability to be resilient is when you're isolated … not having a network [or] a community. I think [that] is the most important thing to try and avoid before you experience hard things,” said Jennifer Bangoura, a career coach and professor, during our recent digital event.
